It’s interesting that your choice is Wolf Thorn...my husband uses that and it drives me crazy because I think fruity smells are girly. I’ve always thought that he smelled girly because of it. If your mom had actually smelled it I don’t think she would’ve been mad. I’ve come to accept that my husband uses it (but anytime I buy him deodorant I buy him a different scent), and it’s not so bad because I will use it too when I don’t run out of deodorant and I actually don’t mind using it because it’s a feminine smell. Anyways, to each his own, I just thought that was ironic that you chose that one because I always thought it was a feminine smell. Which isn’t bad!!! If you like it you like it. :)
